Answer:

  1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an infinite geometric series is given by the formula ...

  S = a/(1 -r)

where 'a' is the first term, and r is the common ratio.

<h3>Application</h3>

Here, the first term is 1/12, and the common ratio is ...

  (1/18)/(1/12) = 12/18 = 2/3

Then the sum is ...

  S = (1/12)/(1 -2/3) = (1/12)/(1/3) = 3/12 = 1/4

The sum of the infinite series is 1/4.

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

Given that:-

  • Price of the item before tax and discount = $17
  • After discount and before tax price is = $15.64

The percentage of the discount will be calculated as:-

Percentage discount = ( 17 - 16.64 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount= ( 1.36 ) / ( 17 )

Percentage discount = 0.08 x 100 = 8%

Therefore the percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.
